| Aug 8, 2018 at 15:32 | comment | added | user2565 | I only skimmed the answers, so someone maybe already said this: political parties need fewer signatures to put a candidate on the ballot. In return, the parties must follow certain rules. The State of New Mexico recognizes "major party candidates" (fewest number of signatures required), "minor party candidates" (more signatures required), and non-party candidates (highest number of signatures required): ballotpedia.org/… | |
